This is the place where you can personalize your profile!
But, how?
By moving, adding and personalizing widgets.
You can drag and drop to rearrange.
You can edit widgets to customize them.
The bottom has widgets you can add!
Some widgets you can only access when you get a premium membership.
Some widgets have options that are only available when you get a premium membership.
We've split the page into zones!
Certain widgets can only be added to certain zones.
"Why," you ask? Because we want profile pages to have freedom of customization, but also to have some consistency. This way, when anyone visits a deviant, they know they can always find the art in the top left, and personal info in the top right.
Don't forget, restraints can bring out the creativity in you!
Now go forth and astound us all with your devious profiles!
Hey there! Looked through your gallery, and I just wanted to say that your leatherwork is awesome. It looks fantastic! Well, yeah, just wanted to let you know

PS: I see you use those round boffer "swords"... Why?
Two years ago I had a little money set aside for LARP and had to choose between latex swords or starting leatherworking. I went with leatherworking. I could have upgraded since but haven't.
This weekend I broke/damaged two swords, which is really unusual, but it'll only cost about 10$ to replace both. Also I love curved swords and have never seen a curved latex sword. I use hot water curved PVC cores. Boffers are easier to get in blue and camo colors.
Most importantly, I find Boffers safer. They don't swing as fast or hard. I've tried all sorts of weapons, injected rubber, latex, graphite core, and I injure people far less often with big thick boffer weapons. Inritius Alliance LARP is open to everyone and that includes a lot of non-armored and smaller persons.
Aha, that seems like a perfectly good reason to use boffer swords It just seemed unusual to me, that a person with such nice costume and armor doesn't have more "realistic" weapons. I've never, ever, seen such a boffer weapon in any Danish LARP. Not even in pictures from LARPs I haven't attended. Everyone either uses bought latex weapons, homemade swords like my Orc Cleaver or homemade latex weapons. Some of us use Calimacil, a brand that is getting more and more common in Denmark. They're made of a kind of foam, and they're incredibly durable, realistic and good to fight with. They even have curved swords. www.calimacil.com
